It is always good to know there are severl poisonous plants out there you all should made aware of in case you dont already know but first I want to bring this up

For the Poison Control Center : As the premier animal poison control center in North America, the APCC is your best resource for any animal poison-related emergency, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. If you think that your pet may have ingested a potentially poisonous substance, make the call that can make all the difference: (888) 426-4435. A $60 consultation fee may be applied to your credit card

Ok it is great really to have this number but I think it is a bit ridiculous for them to have to charge you 60 fricken bucks, get real, you are in trying to help your loved one, and sure they have those ask a nurse for free this should be free too, but hey everyone has to get their money I guess..

I have a few here and will list the others tomorrow for you all ok? this is all thanks to the aspca site I love them

Lilies
Members of the Lilium spp. are considered to be highly toxic to cats. While the poisonous component has not yet been identified, it is clear that with even ingestions of very small amounts of the plant, severe kidney damage could result.   Scarey!!

Marijuana
Ingestion of Cannabis sativa by companion animals can result in depression of the central nervous system and incoordination, as well as vomiting, diarrhea, drooling, increased heart rate, and even seizures and coma.

Sago Palm
All parts of Cycas Revoluta are poisonous, but the seeds or “nuts” contain the largest amount of toxin. The ingestion of just one or two seeds can result in very serious effects, which include vomiting, diarrhea, depression, seizures and liver failure

Tulip/Narcissus bulbs
The bulb portions of Tulipa/Narcissus spp. contain toxins that can cause intense gastrointestinal irritation, drooling, loss of appetite, depression of the central nervous system, convulsions and cardiac abnormalities.

Azalea/Rhododendron
Members of the Rhododenron spp. contain substances known as grayantoxins, which can produce vomiting, drooling, diarrhea, weakness and depression of the central nervous system in animals. Severe azalea poisoning could ultimately lead to coma and death from cardiovascular collapse.

I will list more for you tomorrow so you are aware and have the lists to add together, these are all again thanks to the aspca site, but man, becareful of your little ones folks they are innocent and need your guidance
